This second volume of Raimon Panikkar\u2019s Opera Omnia<\/em> presents the author’s reflections on religion today as well as in many other historical periods. Because no particular religion can claim to fulfil the universal range of human experience, Panikkar argues that in a globalized world a kind of religious pluralism is a necessary reality, and dialogue between different religions, cultures and worldviews is an imperative of our time.
The first section of this volume expands on the concept of religion from different viewpoints and develops some of the most universal aspects of religiosity. The second deals with comparative religion and with the religious philosophy of encounter, while the third section includes more specific topics, including the body and medicine, because religion reconnects not just humanity to God, but also the spirit to the body.<\/p>
